Mashed Potatoes

 Peel the potatoes & chop into large chunks, add to boiling water, add plenty of salt. Boil for 8-12 minutes, or until just fork tender.

 Drain the potatoes, add them to a large empty pot on low heat.

 Add half a stick of butter, 1 block cream cheese, garlic & start mashing together.

 Add the heavy cream, sour cream & salt & pepper to taste. Mix to combine.

 Finish off by mixing in the remaining half stick of butter.

 OPTIONALLY, you can melt 2 tbsp butter in a pan, add 1 cup crushed kettle cooked potato chips, toast for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the chopped parsley & chives, top the mashed potatoes then serve!
